I would like to point something out here that might clear up a few of these circular arguments. WRT speed of light (c) as a discrete value in units
of meters/second: this number is derived from a geometrical RELATIONSHIP of the tangent in an Lorentz function.
so, in other words, it is far more accurate to represent the light constant as a relationship of geometrical forms than it is to approximate it using
a discrete value.
accordingly, the reason that the maths in the meter/cubit comparison are working out properly is because they are both derived from the same geometric
relationship.
the cubit and the meter are not related to each other.... they are BOTH related to the geometry.
p.s. great thread, I have found this info very useful.
